Davidsonville Athletic Association is a non-profit organization administered by a volunteer board whose mission is to promote, encourage, direct and operate athletic programs for the children and youth of the Davidsonville area, Anne Arundel County.

The County Soccer program is a recreational soccer program which promotes fair play, good sportsmanship, skills and fun for players ages 7 through 18. Our boys and girls teams are registered in the Anne Arundel Youth Soccer Association (AAYSA) for both spring and fall soccer seasons. The AAYSA is a county-sponsored recreational league that supports divisions for different team skill levels.

Teams are grouped by age levels, starting at Under 8 for spring and fall. In general, DAA’s oldest team for boys or girls is Under 18. The age group for your child is now based on birth-year per the new US Soccer mandates. The DAA soccer program does its best to group players in their appropriate age group, but based on the number of registrations, roster maximums and skill levels, some players may be grouped differently as necessary. Where multiple teams are formed at an age group, evaluations will be used to correctly place players in the appropriate team. County Teams practice 2 times a week.
